Cora 2nd Grade Winter/Spring Conference

Tonight was sis' conferences - a virtual meeting with Miss Butcher. 

School work is great... Cora is doing amazing.  She has her math adding and subtracting down (however, she will fully explain that she "does not like subtraction!")  She's reading way past the 2nd grade (actually almost 4th grade level!!)  She loves being a leader - loves having the teacher give her 'jobs', she's organized and is a positive encourager.  We loved hearing all these things. 

Things she needs to work on/goals - telling time a little better, reading at a slower pace and having positive peer connections.  This last one is a big one...  she has lots of little friends, and with her big personality and wanting to be a leader, this tends to come off as 'bossy'.  We all know this.   She struggles at times with her friends...  getting upset at things and holding that grudge...  being bossy.  

We talked with her...  we both know she's very stubborn and just likes to be in charge.  Period.   And then with that, we also know that this is 2nd grade...  she still has a lot to learn and honestly, I hope that dance will help with some of this.  Sounds silly, but I hope she will learn a little more respect (from us and at dance), and apply that at school.  I'm personally not worried about it, but I do know we need to stay on top of this... 

Her FAST scores:

Reading - 503 (almost 4th grade)

Math - 205 (right at 2nd grade)


We are very proud of this girl...  just need her to learn some more boundaries and respect.
